squiffs Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Anyone else think this product has a very VERY limited scope? It'll look slightly odd the rest of the year... and it's advertised as the perfect pressie for someone who wants to start keeping chickens, and yet it comes without a run! I thought it was quite cute when I first saw it, but after thinking about it, it's a little too gimmicky for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 It looks rather cheerful. I might go and stick some white spots on all my Eglus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 You can have it with or without a run. It's just a red eglu with a white egg port door and snowflake stickers. Hm, I have a red eglu - wonder if the snowflake stickers can be bought seperately? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I like it! It has a toadstooly look about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_H Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I have a red eglu and a green eglu - I could swap the doors ! (red & green are very Christmassy colours) H PS - Now its December, I can talk about Christmas!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Hey yes, I could do the red & green swap thing too! I once shredded red & green paper for the girls Xmas nest boxes! I've not seen this Xmas eglu - will have a browse in a mo. It's called a marketing ploy - they have to try all sorts! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfer_chicken Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I like it! It has a toadstooly look about it! I agree. I don't think it looks that Christmass-y. I like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabidtech Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I like it ! I think it looks good. Omlet should do more mix and match Eglu's where you can choose for the colour of the eggport door to be different to the rest of the eglu.

happy_monday1984 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 agh I really like this! it really does look like a big toadstool! Now, how on Earth to convince OH that we reeeally need a second eglu.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabidtech Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 HappyMonday, if you swapped the white eggport door onto your fried eglu - you could create an all white eglu!!! Imagine that camouflaged in the snow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammy72 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I really like it but then I love all things snowy, one of my ladies is called Snowflake (she is white but not gentle or soft so does not live up to her name!). I don't have the £'s to get one at the mo and my secondhand green one is just fine but if someone does get one I'd love to see a pic!
